Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

To break the restriction of the spiritual medicine garden on Tiantai Peak, you must first break the formation base on the seven guarding peaks, otherwise the restriction will absorb the spiritual energy of the large spiritual veins in the blessed land, and it will never be broken.

Most of the more than ten existing spiritual medicine gardens in the Dongxu Mountain blessed land are of this kind of restriction, which is extremely stable, so it can survive tens of thousands of years of time and remain intact.

Other cultivators do not have a map of the secret realm in their hands, and they would never think that this method is needed to break the restriction of the spiritual medicine garden.

The speed of going down the mountain is much faster than going up the mountain. After more than half an hour, Chen Yuan walked down the Tiantai Peak and climbed a small hill guarding the Tiantai Peak.

The formation base of this mountain is a green pine, but there are more than ten green pines standing on the top of the mountain, and it is difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.

Chen Yuan didn't have time to slowly find the location of the array base. He controlled five seven-star blades and chopped down the more than ten green pines one by one. When he chopped down the eighth tree, there was a sound of metal clashing, and a green light curtain lit up on the surface of the green pine, which was intact.

Chen Yuan made up his mind, put away the seven-star blade, took out the silver sword, and suddenly urged his magic power, shouting:

"Cut!"

The silver sword turned into a stream of light, shot out, and chopped on the trunk of the green pine.

Clang!

A loud noise was heard, the momentum was amazing, but the green pine still stood firm.

Chen Yuan seemed to be not surprised by this result. He shook his head slightly, took back the silver sword, and then stroked the storage bag and took out a low-grade spiritual talisman gold sword talisman.

According to the map, these seven array bases must be at least foundation-building cultivators to break.

Although the silver sword was mixed with medium-grade spiritual materials, it was only a high-grade magic weapon after all. It was sharp but not powerful enough.

Chen Yuan held the golden sword talisman, injected magic power into it, and chanted something.

The golden sword talisman slowly burned up, and after a few breaths, it absorbed half of Chen Yuan's magic power, and then turned into a three-foot-long golden magic sword, shining brightly, radiating a sharp aura.

Chen Yuan pointed and shouted:

"Fast!"

The golden sword flew out suddenly and chopped on the trunk of the green pine tree!

Clang!

A sound even more violent than before was heard, resounding through the top of the mountain.

The green pine tree that had just stood firm under the silver sword was cut by the golden magic sword with a half-foot deep wound.

The green pine tree trunk was only one foot in radius, and now it lost half of its support and was about to fall, with green light flashing on the surface.

The power of the golden magic sword was exhausted, and it turned into golden light and dissipated in the air.

But the formation base here was also broken in half by it, so it would be easy to deal with next.

Chen Yuan took out the Silver Gang Sword again, and used its sharpness to chop the green pine.

A quarter of an hour later, the green pine was finally chopped down to the ground, and the green light on its surface suddenly became dazzling, and then turned into a green formation flag.

This formation flag was exactly what Chen Yuan needed. He raised his hand and took it and put it into the storage bag.

Then, he took out a soul-restoring pill and swallowed it, closed his eyes and meditated to restore his mana.

Chen Yuan first activated a low-grade spiritual talisman, and then continued to control the Silver Gang Sword to chop the green pine. His mana was exhausted and he had no more energy to break the remaining formation base.

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Yuan's mana was fully restored, and he stood up and walked down the mountain. It took him half an hour to climb the second guarding mountain.

Unlike the first mountain, there was only a three-meter-high boulder on the top of the second mountain.

And this boulder was the formation base of this mountain.

Chen Yuan did not use magic tools to test this time. He took out a Falling Flower Talisman, held it in his hand, injected magic power, and muttered something.

After a few breaths, the Falling Flower Talisman turned into ashes, and a burst of colorful flowers suddenly appeared in the air and fell down.

These flowers were all transformed by spiritual light, with form but no substance, and fell on the boulder without sound.

A thick layer of yellow spiritual light lit up on the surface of the boulder. The falling flowers touched the light curtain, making a slight hissing sound, and corroded a trace of yellow spiritual light.

Hundreds of falling flowers floated down one after another, corroding the yellow light curtain with pits and dimming the spiritual light.

Chen Yuan smiled slightly, raised the Silver Gang Sword, and chopped it down.

Half a quarter of an hour later, this layer of yellow light curtain was completely shattered.

The surface of the boulder flickered with yellow light, turning into a yellow formation flag, which was collected by Chen Yuan.

Breaking the restriction here also exhausted Chen Yuan's mana.

He took out a soul-restoring pill, closed his eyes and meditated, and waited until his mana was restored before he went down the mountain to the third guarding peak.

After breaking through two array bases, Chen Yuan was familiar with the route, and he did the same thing afterwards. He first offered up the lower-grade spirit talisman, and then used the silver sword to break through the remaining five array bases one after another.

Eight hours later, the full moon was high in the sky, and the Milky Way was across the sky. Chen Yuan returned to the top of Tiantai Peak with seven array flags.

At this time, the seven offensive lower-grade spirit talismans in his hand had all been used up, and there were only four soul-restoring pills left.

Fortunately, Chen Yuan was well prepared. If he had fewer soul-restoring pills and used all his time to restore his mana, he would not be able to break the restriction here when the secret realm was closed.

Even if he had soul-restoring pills to restore his mana, due to the existence of the forbidden sky restriction, most of the time would be consumed on the way, and it took Chen Yuan nearly a day to break through the seven array bases.

There were still two days before the secret realm was closed, and he didn't have much time left.

Chen Yuan also knew that time was running out, and he dared not delay for a moment.

After he arrived at the top of Tiantai Peak, he took a breath, took out seven formation flags, and threw them into the lake.

After the formation flags entered the water, they stood on the lake surface, motionless, as if they were stuck in the ground, emitting seven colors of light: red, white, gold, blue, yellow, green, and blue.

Then, the lake surface turned into a layer of deep blue light curtain, and the seven colors of light on the surface kept flashing.

Chen Yuan stroked his storage bag, took out the golden brick talisman, raised his hand, pinched his fingers, and injected his magic power into it.

The talisman released a stream of golden light, which condensed into a seven-foot-sized golden brick in the air.

After a few breaths, the golden brick condensed into a substance. Chen Yuan urged his magic power and shouted:

"Fall!"

The golden brick flew over the lake and smashed down with a bang, and the dark blue light curtain trembled.

Chen Yuan was delighted, and the magic formula in his hand changed. The golden brick flew up again, paused for a moment, and smashed down again!

The rumbling sound continued, and the dark blue light curtain continued to tremble. Under the bombardment of the golden brick, cracks appeared on the surface.

But until a quarter of an hour later, Chen Yuan's magic power was exhausted, the golden bricks dispersed, and this layer of light curtain was still not broken.

Chen Yuan frowned slightly when he saw that the prohibition of the spiritual medicine garden was so tough.

But fortunately, he had broken through seven formation bases. With the help of seven formation flags, the damaged parts of the restriction were not repaired by spiritual energy. After he stopped, it remained the same.

The first attempt to break the restriction was not in vain.

Chen Yuan took a soul-restoring pill, closed his eyes and meditated, restored all the mana in his body, and activated the golden brick talisman again to bombard the restriction.

The second attempt to break the restriction was still unsuccessful, but the restriction light curtain was damaged even more severely.

Chen Yuan took the soul-restoring pill, closed his eyes and meditated, restored the mana in his body, and then broke the restriction for the third time.

This time, the attempt to break the restriction made obvious progress.

Under the continuous bombardment of the gold brick, a crack appeared on the restriction light curtain, which was about half a foot wide.

Chen Yuan was very excited. He took the second to last soul-restoring pill in his hand to restore the mana in his body, and then sacrificed the silver sword and the fixed light mirror to start the fourth attempt to break the restriction.

The golden brick talisman he got from Gu Zhaoshi can only be used four times.

When fighting with Du Yu before, he used it once. Just now, he used it three times in a row to break the ban, and it has turned into ashes. Chen Yuan can only use magic tools to break the ban.

The power of the top-grade magic tools is far inferior to the talisman treasure. Chen Yuan's fourth attempt to break the ban still failed.

But he was not discouraged. He took the last pill of rejuvenation pill to restore the mana in his body, and then tried to break the ban for the fifth time.

Unfortunately, the fifth attempt to break the ban still failed.

The surface of the forbidden light curtain was full of cracks and was shaky. The scene behind the light curtain could be seen faintly, but it was still stubbornly connected, blocking Chen Yuan's steps and his path.

At this time, Chen Yuan's rejuvenation pill was exhausted, but he was not panicked at all. He sat cross-legged, took a Yuhua pill, closed his eyes and meditated, and slowly recovered his mana.

...

Three hours later, Chen Yuan's mana was fully restored, and he had the power to break the ban again.

He stood up, took out four top-grade talismans, threw them in front of him, raised his hands, made hand gestures, and muttered something.

This was the limit of what he could do after his consciousness was damaged. Any more would be beyond his ability.

Three breaths later, the four top-grade talismans turned into golden spears, ice rain, falling rocks, and fire dragons, all blasting towards the restricted light curtain.

The light curtain shook for a while, adding a few more cracks, but it still did not break.

Chen Yuan took out four more top-grade talismans and threw them out.

The restricted light curtain trembled violently, and the seven-colored spiritual light on it kept flashing, as if it was about to break.

Chen Yuan's eyes flashed, and he took out the last three top-grade talismans and threw them out together!

Crack!

The restricted light curtain finally broke, revealing the scene inside.

This is a valley of dozens of acres in size, with a mountain wall more than ten feet high, and the top is converging inward, the same size as a lake.

There are hundreds of spiritual herbs growing in the valley. If you look closely, most of them are Yin Yang Zhi, Angelica dahurica, and Seven Star Grass. The rest of the spiritual herbs are extremely rare three hundred year old spiritual herbs.

In the northeast corner of the valley, there is a two-story building with flying eaves, green tiles and red roofs, and the door is wide open.

Chen Yuan laughed loudly, raised his hand to call back the seven formation flags, stepped on the ground, and fell into the valley like a light feather.

At this time, the sky was bright, the sky was clear and cloudless, and the sunlight shone into the valley, reflecting the dazzling golden light on the spiritual dew on the leaves and flowers of the spiritual herbs.

There are less than twenty hours left before the secret realm of Dongxu Mountain will be closed.

Chen Yuan finally broke the restriction of the spiritual medicine garden in time and did not fail.

But after he entered the valley, a trace of nervousness flashed in his eyes. He did not even look at these spiritual herbs and went to the two-story building as soon as possible.

The walls of the hall on the first floor were clean and the furnishings were simple and elegant. There was only a sandalwood square table on which was placed a jade slip, a formation plate, and six spiritual stones.

These spiritual stones were about the size of an index finger, surrounded by a misty aura, and the spiritual energy was rich, far superior to the lower-grade spiritual stones. They were extremely precious middle-grade spiritual stones.

Chen Yuan picked up the jade slip, probed into it with his spiritual sense, and examined it carefully.

After a while, he withdrew his spiritual sense, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, picked up the formation plate and spiritual stones, then left the small building, drove the flying boat, flew out of the valley, returned to the top of Tiantai Peak, and went down the mountain.

He took great pains, used seven lower-grade spiritual talismans, one talisman treasure, and eleven top-grade magic talismans, and struggled to break the ban, but from beginning to end, he did not pick the spiritual herbs in the valley, as if he was not interested in them.
